NOTES
Additional Information:This two story house has a steeply-pitched gable roof with steep projecting gables. The house has clapboard siding, tall and narrow windows, and a gable-roofed front porch wit grouped thin round columns.

This house is a good example of a Queen Anne-influenced front gable vernacular form.

This was the home of John McCrory, an attorney, between 1887 and 1907.
